This article will help schools delve into what Educhain is and how it can help schools solve the problem of paper with education technology.  We will elaborate on what Educhain offers and the type of problems we can help solve. Our guide will serve as an introduction and demonstrate how we can provide value for our potential clients.

Blockchain, the revolutionary solution for digital records

Paper is still a persistent problem for schools. Costly, cumbersome and inefficient, it causes pain points between schools and students when ordering and receiving transcripts.  Educhain provides schools with a digital method to securely issue, verify and authenticate academic records. Blockchain in academia helps solve a variety of issues while ensuring that the highest level of security protects student information.

As the more secure solution, Educhain is distinct from other methods of digital record management. We offer the option of cloud or on-premise blockchain so your data never leaves campus. Digital student records are verified and protected by complex mathematical equations when using hyperledger blockchain technology.

Educhain’s convenient, automated system streamlines the entire process, making work easier for schools and their administrative staff. Conversely, students will also benefit from receiving much-needed documents immediately without any third-party interaction and improved online course security.
